Lord of the Flies

"The
whole gamut of good and evil is in every human being, certain notes from
stronger original quality or most frequent use, appearing to form the whole
character; but they are only the tones most often heard. The whole scale is in
every soul, and the notes most seldom heard will on rare occasions make
themselves audible." ~Fanny Kemble

"Nearly
all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give
him power." ~Abraham Lincoln
